Normally I would just let it slide, but I’m bored so why not have some discourse :)
I do not own fire arms personally due to mental health issues. I do carry pepper spray and have a taser readily available. Worst case scenario a bow I use for hunting.
There are legitimate uses for fire arms full stop. Protection against bodily threats, hunting, tyrannical government, etc.
I support universal background checks and “common sense gun regulation”. It is a dangerous tool, but it is still just a tool. I’d love to see mandatory fire arm safety training before attempting to buy a gun.
Workers rights are bogged down because of hierarchical systems designed towards uplifting the few and the expense of the many.
Why should the government have exclusive use of violence? In any case, the eventual goal (for me personally and people like me) is peace and liberty. Until that happens the working class must have access to fire arms. The people who should not own guns are those with mental health issues, and access should be limited to trained/responsible individuals.
A gun is not a tool you need. It is just needed because you expect others to also have it.
Against random robberies, pepperspray, tasers or sirens are better.
If “the woman at night on the walk home” has a gun, “the robber” has one too. Nothing won.
If it is circulating, you cannot prevent the wrong people from getting them.
I see how not only the police having guns is nice. But this means they shoot way quicker. See the rate of deaths by police in germany, its always below 30.
I get what your saying completely. I don’t disagree per se actually (my brain tells me we just have lived in a crazy time for the past couple hundred years, guns are super prolific.). I would love if the police disarmed as well.
Ha ha I see how your worker’s rights ended up even with guns, you fucking coward 😂

UK has it like that. They have “armed police” and normal police.
Did you just assume their nationality?
